Yep, China are doing really well. Although America have the most medals so far, we've got the most golds so far. :p:

Am also keeping an eye out for Hong Kong, but so far, it looks like we have no medals. :frown:

Am keeping an eye out of Hong Kong too. Even though we have no medals, I've still got the hopes up.

ckel]Hi, is anyone here watching the Olympics?

Hahaha, I had just watched the olympics and thought I'd drop in and praise you guys. I'll leave if you want me to...

You're more than welcome here :yep:

Another gold for him today 2 more to go :woo:

Qing dynasty flag, well I think it's a pretty flag but I guess it might be a contraversial choice seeing how Qing dynasty is often seen as a 'shameful' period because of weakening military power leading to the 'unequal treaties' and Opium Wars. :o:

Well...I really hope that Phelps would finish off those two gold medals.

Well...which kind of flag do you want? I seriously don't know what to choose...it's all too political.

You don't have to leave...Japanese people are always welcome (except for s.e.r.e.n.e). Nevertheless...enjoy your stay! :p:

Too bad they are in the same half of the draw. :o:

I think Lin Dan sees Chong Wei highly and actually wants a match with Chong Wei. :rolleyes:

Not really for me, there's less atmosphere because they're both chinese and you know that when there's a malaysian against a chinese they're guaranteed to be really competitive

Same here, but at least they both won their matches, which meant 2 medals for China! :biggrin:

Was really pleased for Lin Dan; he really deserves it for the way he's dominated the game of badminton. He seems to be good on every aspect of his game, his net play, court coverage, accuracy, choice of shot, agility, raw speed and power. He defends as well as he attacks; he just seems to have very little (or no) weaknesses.

Am also delighted for Zhang Ning after her thrilling victory over compatriot, Xie Xingfang. She became the first badminton player to ever successfully defend her Olympics singles' title. You could see how much it meant to her.
Does anyone know if this is her last Olympics? If so, this has been a fitting finale. :smile:

P.S. We beat our big rivals, USA, at beach volleyball! Yeah! :biggrin:

So now, it's a semi-final between 2 Chinese pairs, which means we're at least guaranteed a silver medal. :yep:

Did you see the 4x100 IM relay? Oh my god...Michael Phelps stole the show! Now...he's the record holder for the most Olympic gold medals. Man...he's such a crazy swimmer!

I'm also surprised that Canada FINALLY gets some medals. However...I hope that China keeps it up and get more gold medals so that USA would cry and weep as the Olympic games end. I know...I'm so evil. :p:

Wow...Hanoi, 蘋果, and ~|Shock|~, you people are so good in earning reputation points! I totally envy you!

Welcome to this thread...I hope you enjoy your stay here! :p:

Well...the Japanese team isn't that bad either...especially Kosuke Kitajima...he's such a fast swimmer in breaststroke. :eek:

lol! nidhogg_rider is a bbc if you read his profile :p:

did anyone see the 劉翔 heat? I feel sorry for him...the pressure of all the anticipation of the whole nation...all the pressure not to disappoint...and then he realises that it's just not possible with the injury... :no:

you could see that he was uncomfortable walking into the stadium but he still didn't want to disappoint...everyone just put too much expection and pressure on him　:/

Yes I was so glad when ZN won, she is my favourite badminton player. Yes this is her last olympics at 33 (I think!), she orginally wanted to retire at 26 but her coach told her to carry on playing, and was going to retire after Athens, but the thought of defending her title in Beijing delayed her retirement for another 4 years and luckily she won gold :smile:
